Location pages that rank, and one system view for a growing franchise.

Kontota grew from one van to a franchise system across more than a dozen markets. We have worked with the franchisor since 2023 on search, location pages, Google profiles and booking, and now report the whole system in one place.

On the road
Where they started
  • Every market had its own spend, its own reports and its own way of booking. Corporate could not see which locations needed help.
  • Location pages were thin, so most visitors landed on the homepage and had to hunt for their nearest van.
  • The website was slow enough to cost bookings on mobile.
What we built
  1. 2023
    System SEO

    Managed SEO across the multi-location site, with location pages rebuilt one market at a time (Little Elm in Oct 2025, McKinney in Dec 2025).

  2. Dec 2025
    Speed fix

    Moved the site to a faster environment over a weekend, with the owner's sign-off. Load times dropped immediately.

  3. Jul 2026
    Smart booking router

    Visitors enter a ZIP code and land in the right franchisee's booking flow. Cincinnati converts about a third of matches into bookings.

  4. Sep 2026
    Franchisor command center

    One monthly system report: every market ranked, the corporate store, and a page per location, with franchisor and location logins.

What changed
  • The McKinney page went from 30 to 381 monthly clicks after its rebuild; Little Elm from 31 to 195.
  • Non-brand search clicks roughly doubled (499 → 1,044, May to Jul year over year) and "near me" clicks went 245 → 575.
  • In July 2026, 72% of visitors who started a booking came from organic search.
  • Several markets now sit at or near #1 in the map pack for "mobile dog groomers".
What's next

Extend the launch program that took Cincinnati to #1 into more franchise territories.

In their words

We were using a different company and they didn't have a clear strategy. Once we started talking to you guys and had a clear, month-by-month strategy, we're definitely seeing an uptick in all aspects, across the board. … It's a very thoughtful plan. It's pretty strategic, actually. Highly recommend your services, for sure.
